    This movie is awesome! Some critics really have no idea how to review movies. The only people who shares their taste in movies are other movie critics!

    Highly imaginative movie that pays gracious homage to Akria Kurosawa. It's so refreshing to experience a comedy about adolesence where the core humor comes from the strength of it's characters rather than clumsy attempts at crude bathroom jokes.

    This is a fascinating story about friendship, and about being outside "normal" culture. It gives a deep, but twisted look into how western culture is being absorbed by japaneese youth. This is NOT a documantary, this is a _FariyTale_ !!! Or more actually, an anime done by real actors. Thus, anything is possible, like crashing a scooter into a 3-wheel-truck while wearing a frilled rokoko dress, and not only walk away but actually ride off to fight a gang of biker-girls. Kamikaze girls is a must if you : a. have ever been bullied. b. have ever been an outsider. c. have ever had a true friend. d. have never had a true friend. e. like strange movies. Expand

    Fluff. The cinematic equivalent of too much cotton candy Tetsuya Nanashima's Kamikaze Girls is a hyperkinetic fun house ride that is about forty five minutes too long.

    It's the kind of rollicking rebel-chick flick that should score well in venues that appreciate Quentin Tarantino films.

    Wears out its welcome at 100 minutes, but could find an audience in the West as a latenight attraction at gay fests.
